Cristiano Ronaldo has announced that he has left Portugal's national team training camp, confirming the news himself on social media on Wednesday. The announcement followed a press conference by head coach Jorge Jesus and a conversation with Portuguese Football Federation president Pedro Proenca, though Ronaldo offered no specific details about the reasons for his exit. The departure came amid reports of tension around his role in the team. The Portugal captain had been an unused substitute in the recent two to one Nations League victory over Norway, and Jesus had indicated that Ronaldo would not start the upcoming match against Denmark. Ronaldo said he would reveal his reasons at a later time while underlining his long standing dedication to Portugal. He closed his message by wishing the national team and his teammates well in their upcoming matches. The federation confirmed that Ronaldo had left the camp and said preparations for the fixtures would continue with the remaining squad.
